Two groups of migrants cross the border between Belarus and Poland

There have been moments of tension on the border and the Police have responded with violence. Some people have been intercepted and returned to Belarusian territory and others have managed to flee.

Dozens of migrants crossed the border between Belarus and Poland last night when they managed to break the fences.

In the last hours they have lived moments of tension and violence between border forces and migrants. Some people who have managed to cross have been intercepted and returned to Belarus and others have been sent to reception centers. Some people have managed to flee from the Police.

Days go by and the tension does not cease between Belarus and Poland. Belarus’ decision to open the borders has been seen by many as retaliation for the sanctions imposed by the European Union against the Government of Lukashenko. Meanwhile, thousands of people are trapped at the border: Poland is denying them entry and Belarus forbidding them to return.

Migrants denounce that the Belarusian authorities promise to enter the European Union before starting your journey.

Today, Wednesday, the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, meets with the Polish Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, in Warsaw, in the midst of the crisis with Belarus for what they consider an instrumentalization of migrants on their common border to pressure the European Union (EU ).
